IMPROVEMENT IN FQPLCE-PUMPS.

Speeiiication forming part of Letters Patent No. LLEJSSQ, dated August2, 1564.

To all whom it may concern:

Beit known that I, C. B. GUY, of Lybrand, l

in the county of Allamaliee and State of Iowa, have invented a new andImproved Pump; and l do hereby declare that the following is a full,clear, and exact description ofthe same, rt ference being had t0 theaccompanying drawings, niaking a part of this specification, in which-Figure l is a side sectional view of my invention, taken in the lineFig. 2, Fig. 2, a plan or top view ot' the same.

Similar letters ot' reference indicate corresponding parts in the twofigures.

This invention is more especially designed for domestic purposes, andhas for its object the elevating` ot' water i'rom springs, wells, 85e.,and forcing it to any convenient distance or height by a very moderateexpenditure ot' pJwer and comparative inexpensive means.

The invention consists in the employmentl or use of a chamber providedwith a piston and valve, and having a force or eduction pipecommunicating with it provided with a checky valve, the above partsbeing used in connection with a loaded lever applied to the pistonrodand a windlass connected with said lever, all being arranged ashereinafter set forth.

To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand and construct myinvention, l will proceed to describe it.

A represents a chamber, which may be of quadrilateral, cylindrical, orother forni, provided with a piston, B, and having a valve, a, in itsbottom opening upward. C is a force or eduction pipe, which communicateswith the lower part ot' A, and is provided with a check-valve, b, toprevent the water forced into C from passing back again into A. Theseparts constitute the ordinaryT force pump, and i 1 'therefore do notrequire a minute description. The piston B has its rod D attached to itby Q ajoint, e, and the upper end of said rod is connected by ajoint, d,with a lever, E, the i'ulcrum c of which is at the upper end ot' anupright, F. To one end ot the lever E there is attached a cord, H, whichpasses undery neath guide pulleys ff, and is connected to a windlass, I.The i'orce or eduction pipe C may l be carried to any convenientdistance or height, where it is designed to have the water conveyed anddischarged, and the windlass I may be near the discharge-orifice of saidpipe (J. The pump is subinerged-at least, its lower end-in a well,spring, or reservoir, from which the water is to be drawn, and theweight G has a tendency to draw up the piston B and to cause the waterto enter. A through the valve a. r lhe piston, when forced down in A byturning the windlass I, forces the water from A through the pipe- C, andwhen the windlass is released theweight Gr again raises i the piston Band causes water from the well, t spring, or reservoir to enter A, fromwhich it is again forced out through C when the piston is depressed.lhns by this simple and inex- 1 pensive arrangement water may beelevated i and foi-eed to any desired distance or height. Having thusdescribed my invention, what I f claim as new, and desire to secure. byLetters Patent, isl rlhe pump, in combination with the force or yeduction pipe, loaded lever, and windlass, all arranged to operate inthe manner substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.
